Welcome

Montrose Aged Care Centre provides aged care services and specialised care services for men with behavioural and mental health concerns. We provide 24-hour care to those who need care, especially those who are homeless or vulnerable in the community. Providing all the comforts of home, personalised health and wellbeing programs and an array of amenities, we pride ourselves on helping our residents live their best lives.

Located just a few minutes from the heart of the Sydney CBD in beautiful Balmain, we are close to shops, public transport (ferry and buses) and many health-related services.

Our Services

At Montrose Aged Care Centre, we offer permanent residential care including behavioural and mental health support, memory support and palliative care; and respite (short-term) care. We also offer eligible residents NDIS services (subject to assessment) with in-house NDIS support coordination and staff.

Our staff and Chaplain go beyond the clinical to cater for the physical, emotional and spiritual wellbeing of our residents. Our residents are in good hands with our friendly, compassionate and qualified staff whose aim is to ensure all residents receive the best care.

Each staff member has undergone reference and security checks to ensure they are fully qualified, experienced and are passionate about working in the aged care sector. Our staff undergo ongoing training as well to make sure they are up to speed with the latest processes and knowledge. Emotional intelligence and sensitivity to diversity are other key factors that we take into consideration when recruiting staff into our Centre community.

Montrose Aged Care Centre offers spacious single bedrooms with private ensuite designed with residents’ comfort and security in mind. Each room has:

TV connection available
Built-in cupboards
Electronically adjustable beds
24-hour emergency call system for added peace of mind
Surrounding suburban views

This is your home, you are most welcome to bring in your own favourite items - photos, mementos and accessories to dress the room to your own taste and preferences. *

*All items must meet the Centre's work, health and safety guidelines.

We offer specialised behavioural and mental health programs, tailored to each of our residents’ needs.

Meals are cooked daily onsite by a qualified chef in consultation with the dietitian. The menu is regularly rotated to promote choice and take advantage of what is in season. Each meal has a selection of high protein, vegetarian and modified options. We also cater for special dietary and cultural requirements.

Nutrition programs can also be organised as required.

We take fun quite seriously! The Centre has a dedicated Lifestyle team that organises daily activities based on the suggestions of residents via resident meetings including music therapy, drumming classes, regularly visiting entertainers, art therapy and regular outings. We also offer regular exercise programs including one-on-one gym sessions with our onsite physiotherapist.

Our residents can enjoy using our combined theatre and recreational room, gym, lawn bowl green, communal seating areas, expansive outdoor areas and gardens, and centre bus and car.

Scheduled visits from the local GP and other Allied Health services as needed, including physiotherapist, podiatrist, psychiatrist and optometrist.

We have a holistic model of care. The Centre Chaplains play an important role in bringing this to life. We also have a chapel onsite. Whatever your beliefs, our Chaplains are here to assist in your spiritual and emotional journey, if you wish - because we don't have clients, only family.
